> If the colors were the same thing as

Oh, nobody said they overlap.

The original post claimed that «Colors don't exist outside of your brain»: such statement, while true, is false, as its negation is true (we have mentioned paraconsistency in this very page): "colours" do exist outside your brain, as their nature also is, in a way, being electromagnetic phenomena, function of frequencies.

While such ontological property is pretty common, it is just summoned with some force when someone claims "[fuzzy] is [strict]".

> Thus, electromagnetic spectrum is "out there", but color is "in here"

Of course. That just depends on what you want colour to be. If you put it conceptually near "electromagnetic spectrum", then the distinction emerges.
